Nintendo has Announced a Season Pass for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Recently, we had some very interesting gaming news. According to the official webpage, Nintendo has announced a season pass for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. This is a first for any The Legend of Zelda game, however, it somewhat makes sense. Large RPGs such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Fallout 4 received Season Passes for extra content. It really isn’t too surprising that Nintendo would follow this pattern. The pass will be $19.99 and will include the following content:

Pack 1 – Releasing Summer 2017

A new Cave of Trials challenge

Hard mode

A new feature for the in-game map

Pack 2 – Releasing Holiday 2017

A new dungeon

A new original story

Additional challenges

In addition, the Season Pass gives access to three chests in the main game. Two of these chests will contain “useful items” while the third has a shirt with the Nintendo Switch logo for Link to wear. While having to pay for additional content is never fun, it looks like a nice variety of extras are being added with this season pass. Gamers won’t be waiting much longer to play the game, as both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and the Nintendo Switch console release on March 3.
